He's done it! Nick Kyrgios has reached a first-ever Grand Slam semifinal after a straight sets win. MORE:
After the controversy - mild by his standards - of breaching Wimbledon’s all-white dress code in his last match by wearing red shoes and a coloured cap, Kyrgios this time entered Court 1 with shoes and cap both white.
Kyrgios saved two break points in the following game, and another in his next service game, before serving out the second set 6-3. The Australian’s unforced errors mounted and he was forced to continually rely on his serve to avoid being broken. But in the tie-break, Kyrgios managed to tighten his slipping focus, and eventually emerged victorious on the replayed final point.
